Our take on Musasabi
The store presentation foregrounds momentum, movement, and squirrel-themed action, while the available structure is a fixed set of 28 levels across four zones. That makes the game read as a focused platforming campaign rather than a broad adventure with extensive exploration.
What is Musasabi?
Musasabi is a platforming action game starring Risu, a flying squirrel tasked with recovering scattered magical diamond shards and possibly rescuing lost gnomes.
Movement centers on maintaining momentum while running, jumping, gliding, and attaching to walls or ceilings. Players shoot or evade enemies, collect diamonds, use power-ups, and overcome obstacles while progressing through 28 levels. The game is divided into four zones with different environments, enemy encounters, and boss fights. Levels place pressure on movement and speed, requiring players to react while reaching each stage's goal. Its story follows the return of Akuyaku, an immortal vampire gnome whose spell scattered the diamond shards across the kingdom.
